Written In Reverse

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm writing this to you in reverse

Someone better call a hearse

I can see it all from here

From just a few glimpses

Now that light bulb's gone off

And it's pulling my winces

Now the light bulb's gone on

I've seen it in your eyes

I've seen you blankly stare

And I wanna show you how I love you

But there's nothing there

I'm not standing here

Oh I'm not standing here

And I'm writing in reverse

I know it could be worse

I'm not standing here

And I'm not standing here

I'm not standing here

I'm not standing here

And I'm writing in reverse

I know it could be worse

And I hear that famous song

And I hear it can't be wrong

I know nothing was planned

You just can't help yourself

Some people are so easily shuffled and dealt

If there was only one of us you truly felt

We're getting you all

And it feels real good

But only briefly

Like high school poppers would

Where you lose a bit of yourself

Will you lose a bit of yourself

I'm not standing here

Oh I'm not standing here

And I'm writing in reverse

Know it could be worse

I hear that famous song

And I hear that I can't be wrong

All I know is all I know,

Yeah, all I know, is all I know

Is all I know

I'm writing this to you in reverse

Someone better call a hearse

I can see it all from here

From just a few little glimpses

Now that light bulb's gone off

And it's pulling my winces

And now the light bulb's gone on

I've seen it in your eyes

And there's nothing there

There's nothing there

I want to show you how I love you

I can see you blankly stare
